Living life today present’s profound challenges from every direction. Thus presenting the
serious question of what to do. There is no shrewdness, it’s absent, but
only by choice. There are many past
lessons we’ve learned. These should be improving our quality of life and
happiness today. Instead, today’s
distractions are immeasurable and causes
us to lose our focus. We began to look
off in our peripheral vision and focus
on the things in the sidelines. The one single thing
necessary to improve anything is knowledge.
The second is acting on it. They must be applied together. However
knowing , the shrewd part or the awareness of and acting on it is two different things. I started out doing this. I remember learning
French. That language to me was the most
beautiful sounding language I had ever heard spoken. So I eagerly made it my option for a second language. My dream was to go to
France and speak it among the Natives. It was a big dream of mine. I took it in
junior high as well as high school. I became very fluent according to grade standards. I purchased
book’s , dictionary’s and even
learned to make some of their most exquisite dishes. To this day, there is
nothing better than a French Bakery in my opinion. Needless to say, I learned much about the French, their language , their cuisine as well as the
culture. But as the years passed, life
happened and I lost everything I learned
about the French. How could that
possibly happen? This was so important to me.
All those lessons learned escaped because I failed to live by them. In this Blog, my aim is to
remind the many of the past lessons and how important they are and should be
reflected on. In this way only,they
could become beneficial to us once again if applied. Whatever it is we learn that we don’t use or
apply that’s worthy, invariably we will lose it. Or miss the benefit it could have in our everyday life now.
Everything from following the golden
rule to achieving a much desired goal. Our future success depends very much
on our individual past as well as it’s
choices. We can’t allow distractions to
abort the main thing. We must keep the main thing the main thing. This must be
a decision we come to ahead of time.
So, as long as we keep living today on yesterday’s lesson’s
it will improve our life. They
can’t be forgotten or ignored. Humans are shrewd by nature as well as choice.
Because most times we are keenly aware of where a certain direction will lead
should we choose to follow it.
Life’s lessons big and small need
to be pondered regularly to see how we
are doing with them. These daily incentives will motivate us throughout our
life. It was a pleasure as well as a
reminder for me to recall them. I hope you find joy
and are motivated to put them into action. Souvenez-vous de garder
la chose principale, la
chose principale !(remember to
keep the main thing the main thing)!
